Now he has hooks. He chose hooks because they were cheaper. He chose hooks because he wouldn't outgrow them so quickly. He chose hooks so that everyone would know he was different, so he would scare even himself. <p></p><p></p>Then he meets Aurora. The hooks don't scare her. They don't keep her away.
